In celebration of International Women's Day on March 8, the organizers behind Cincinnati's City Flea have planned a special maker pop-up dedicated to female-owned businesses. 

The Womenfolk Market will take over Over-the-Rhine's The Transept from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. on March 8, bringing more than 40 vendors together under one roof; ticket-buyers can browse, shop and support local ladies and their ventures. 

Expect to see Greater Cincinnati favorites including Parlour, Fern, Grateful Grahams, Lucca, Coda Co., Charnee's Doughnuts and Handzy. 

In addition to shops, the event will also have a full bar and an auction with pieces from Rookwood Pottery and a large-scale work from The Diggingest Girl. 

Tickets to the event cost $11 and a portion of the proceeds will benefit local nonprofit organization Women Helping Women, whose mission is to prevent gender-based violence and empower survivors. 

The Womenfolk Market takes place 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Sunday, March 8 at The Transept, 1205 Elm St., Over-the-Rhine.
